The mid-size crossover SUV segment has never been the same since the introduction of the Honda Pilot into the mix back in 2003. The Pilot instantly caught the attention of the industry thanks to its potent and peppy powertrain, incredible space availability, and added practicality making it an instant favorite. All this fame catapulted to new heights with the SUV segment’s domination over other body types which has resulted in an increase in demand for the Pilot. And to make things more forthcoming, the new 2022 Honda Pilot will carry forward its value proposition with style.
For the 2022 model year, Honda has further improved the Pilot with the following updates – more standard features that include full LED headlights, eight-inch touchscreen display, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, discontinuation of the LX and EX trims, and the introduction of a new Sonic Gray Pearl paint color. The 2022 Honda Pilot will be available in five trims, namely EX-L, Special Edition, Touring, Elite, and Black Edition. Interested in the 2022 Honda Pilot? Contact us to know more.
